Chick-O-Rico

Looking for a Latin culinary adventure beyond the typical Mexican and Central American fare in Charlotte? Look no further than Chick-o-Rico! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with a warm ambiance that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. I recently indulged in a lunch feast at Chick-o-Rico, and let me tell you, it was a fiesta for the senses! I kicked things off with a tantalizing chicken empanada that left me craving more.
Then, the pièce de résistance arrived – a succulent 1/4 rotisserie chicken served with mouthwatering sides of house salad and rice topped with pinto beans.
Each bite was a symphony of flavors, perfectly seasoned and oh-so-satisfying. And let's talk about that salsa picante – although I requested it, I found myself abandoning it after the first heavenly bite of their moist and impeccably seasoned chicken.
That's how good it was! If you're a connoisseur of Peruvian chicken chain restaurants, prepare to be blown away.
Chick-o-Rico's offerings are in a league of their own, surpassing expectations with every dish. As for beverages, I resisted the temptation to dive into their array of tantalizing juice flavors, because I would have preferred a limonada de coco and they do not offer that.
Perhaps next time, I will try one of their beverages. The ambiance was just right – vibrant music filled the air, creating an energetic atmosphere without drowning out the possibility of engaging in lively conversation. In conclusion, Chick-o-Rico delivers an exceptional dining experience that leaves you eagerly anticipating your next visit.
Trust me, once you've tasted their culinary delights, you'll be counting down the days until you can indulge again.
¡Buen provecho!

I grabbed a couple chicken empanadas cause I was in the area and scouting from more yummy food to tell you about...
Julia was so nice, (she's in the video).
I was gonna just get the menu but it's smelled good in there so I ordered 2 empanadas, forget about it, they were fantastic.
I will be back to try other food soon.
They say the chicken is the best in the area so I will try that next time.
Keep you posted... ***RECOMMENDED***

Latin rotisserie chicken is one of my favorite dinners for take out and Chick-O-Rico is my new place.
I ordered half chicken with two sides.
I ordered the mandatory sides, salad, rice & beans and added plantains.
The service was great and the food even better.
This restaurant will definitely be in heavy rotation.
